Good tidings everyone and welcome, once again, to this quickly/drunkenly-typed post of one handsome man’s observations of Sunday Night Football. Even with the Falcons, the first real test for the Patriots (after coasting to wins over the Bills, Jets, and Bucs) perhaps providing an allure of an interesting match-up, I doubt it was enough to prevent all of America ditching NBC for the Breaking Bad finale. My only wish is that I could have done the same thing. Don’t ever say I never did nothing for you.

the drinking game I played

I took one sip of beer…

…whenever Tom Brady gave murder eyes to one of his receivers.

…for every NBC shameless promo.

…every time Collinsworth gushed like a schoolgirl over something Vince Wilfork did. (This one didn’t get much play with him getting carted early in the game. So I took a shot for that.)

…every time Mike Smith appeared overly positive.

…whenever someone mentioned Aaron Hernandez.

I took one shot of bourbon…

…every time Arthur Blank and his bizarre pedo-mustache were displayed looking pensive.

…for any Tim Tebow or Michael Vick mention.

score and a quick summary of the game

NE – 30, ATL – 23

It may have been the first pretty good game, at least, for the first 45 minutes of regulation, that’s been slated for SNF this year. Then again, I had to miss Breaking Bad, so who cares?

LeGarrette Blount — 9 CAR, 64 YDS, 1 TD. THE FALCONS WERE HIT BY A BLOUNT OBJECT! -Berman’d. Yeah Collinsworth, LeGarrette Blount is just like Corey Dillon… except he’s never been good. But they’re both bla…zing through defenses as a Patriot.

Steven Ridley — 11 CAR, 53 YDS. He did some things. But those things didn’t really help out your fantasy roster.

Jacquizz Rodgers — 7 CAR, 32 YDS. What’s wrong with the world these days that they don’t let you quizz in public anymore? I blame Obama.

Aaron Dobson — 1 REC, 10 YDS. Touched his spine with the back of his head. Thankfully, was able to walk off the field. It did not look pretty.

Kenbrell Thompkins — 6 REC, 127 YDS, 1 TD. Had some amazing non-catches to go with that line. Thompkins has hands as soft as granite and often looks like he’s confused as whether to intercept or bat the ball down. Wait… he’s the receiver?

Roddy White — 3 REC, 28 YDS. This guy, Matt Ryan, I call him James Deen, because both can use a Roddy White to their best potential!

Matthew Mulligan — 1 REC, 1 YD, 1 TD. Who the ef is Matthew Mulligan? At this point they’re just finding guys in Irish pubs. Well, cue the golf jokes I guess. *Rushes to FF waivers, sits back… decides to take a mulligan* Wa’qa wa’qa!

Tony Gonzalez — 12 REC, 149 YDS, 2 TDs. Ah, the Spanish tight end not currently incarcerated. That basketball work really paid off for Gonzalez. Did you know he played basketball in college? A true nugget of info right there.

what’s up… 1- Is Goodson worth dropping Ellington?? 2- I just picked up Robert Woods off FA, Good pick or should I grab someone like Jerome Simpson?? I dropped Royal cause I can’t keep these guys on my bench forever. I have Chris Givens, Ellington & Daryl R there the whole season and my starters are breaking. 3- I dropped Bradford for Brian Hoyer, Good or should I grab Shaub if he’s still available??

This #1 waiver I’m holding onto is like a curse. I can’t pick anybody up and if I wait to long then I’m gonna screw myself. I just gotta wait for someone big to get hurt. IDK!!

Do you think I should ride it out for now or do you think it’s time to make a big trade including maybe D Martin to get some better players?? I’m 2-2 but I don’t see myself lasting to much longer
